Featuring Sheila Kay: A Trailblazer in Business and AI

This month, we are thrilled to feature Sheila Kay, a remarkable entrepreneur and AI consultant, in our "Leading Ladies of Tech" series. Sheila's journey from a top executive in Fortune 500 companies to a world traveler and internet marketing coach is nothing short of inspiring. Her dedication to helping entrepreneurs achieve financial freedom and her innovative approach to integrating AI into business practices have made her a standout figure in the tech world.

A Versatile Career

Sheila Kay's career began in corporate America, where she worked as a top executive for renowned companies like Pepsi Cola, Gateway Computers, The Walt Disney Company, and Activision. Her expertise in talent acquisition, high-volume recruiting, and diversity hiring set her apart in the corporate world. Sheila's ability to develop staffing plans, ensure legal compliance, and manage HRIS systems like Oracle and PeopleSoft showcased her versatility and dedication to excellence.

Pursuing Her Passion

In 2009, Sheila boldly decided to leave her corporate career and Beverly Hills lifestyle behind to pursue her passion for international travel. This journey wasn't without its challenges; however, Sheila's resilience, positive thinking, and determination helped her rebuild her life and achieve complete financial freedom. Today, she has traveled to over 35 countries, lived in the beautiful Caribbean, Thailand, and Mexico, and continues to inspire others with her story.

Empowering Entrepreneurs

As the co-founder of Portable Incomes, Sheila has helped countless students create portable income streams and achieve location-independent lifestyles. Her courses on product creation, business branding, outsourcing, and traffic generation have empowered entrepreneurs worldwide. Sheila's best-selling online course, "Find a Dope Remote Job," has enabled many to escape the cubicle and embrace the exciting world of remote work.

Speaker and Educator

Sheila's passion for sharing knowledge shines through her speaking engagements and educational offerings. At this year's "The Business of AI Summit," she spoke on "AI and the Art of Making Money: 15 Tools You Need to Know Right Now!" Known as the "Queen of Print on Demand," Sheila has successfully taught entrepreneurs how to create low-content books and run profitable e-commerce stores, helping hundreds set up and publish on Amazon. Sheila also runs a company that creates children's books using AI, making it easier for aspiring authors to bring their stories to life.

A Personal Connection

I had the pleasure of meeting Sheila in 2013 when she and Arielle Loren, another powerhouse woman, first launched their "Portable Incomes" course. Sheila's mentorship has been invaluable to me, both professionally and personally. In fact, she prepared me for my move to Mexico in 2021 with an in-depth course on expatriation and introduced me to the world of AI in 2022, when ChatGPT was initially launched. Her guidance led me to attend my first AI summit in 2023, setting me on the path to creating my AI integration agency.

A Life of Balance and Exploration

Choosing Mexico as her home after exploring various countries for 16 years, Sheila has found a perfect blend of professional ambition and personal fulfillment. She thrives in her chosen home, immersing herself in the local culture while continuing her luxury world travels.

In Conclusion

Sheila Kay's story is one of resilience, innovation, and empowerment. She is a phenomenal woman who has made significant contributions to the fields of business, internet marketing, and AI.
